Re: Today in pictures

Today in Pictures, a frosty start brought with it blue skies.

1. My doctor said I have to stop climbing trees.
2. Looking back at the start point.
3. In the shadow of "the dunk"
4. The water levels have gone back to normal, if this keeps up there will be a hose pipe ban.
5. One slip and its swimming home for me.
6. The trees that line the footpath.
7. The footpath is to the left of the picture, still muddy.
8. The motorway bridge, and time to turn for home.
9. The meander of the river changes every time the water gets a bit frisky.
10. Then the reason the path is torn up, and the styles at either end are broken, scramblers either ride along the canal, or now this way to get to the site at Church,this site attracts these dirt bikes from all over the area. This is not the first walk I have been on that has been ruined by kids on un-insured, un-taxed, un-roadworthy dirt bikes, a few bikes spoil it for the rest of us that like the quiet countryside. Thats it rant over

Don't encourage them, hon. Or they will flood the forum with pics of flowing water, flowering plants, and cute little ducks and lambs. Me, I gots beer and shots, lotsa food, a good healthy stash, the internet, tv, tunes, and a warm home ... so, I'll sit out the storm that just hit, and then dig out.

Re: Today in pictures

No flowing water or flowery plans from me Eric. I leave that to the masters.
My "Today in pictures" took me over Sharneyford between Bacup and Todmorden and then off road down to the new wind turbine site.
Then home via the Sourhall village and drop down to Portsmouth, between Todmorden and Burnley and then home for tea.

Most photographs were taken from the car, as usual but I did have to walk just 25 yards to get the shots looking up the turbine tower. Worn out now and having a few deserved beers.

No.1 Looking back towards the last bit of tarmac.
N0.2 Getting nearer.
No.3 That's where I did the 25 yard sprint.
No.4 A lot nearer.
No.5 more nearness.
No.6 main road to Sourhall.
No.7 Looking back across the Tod Valley.
No.8 Looking back down to Sourhall.
No.9 Last look at the turbines.
No.10 Looking down on Portsmouth, almost back to proper roads again.

I must remember to clean the windscreen next trip.

I must admit, Eric, that days like this have their charm. A few vignettes: a flock of starlings, woodpeckers and bluejays feasting from my feeder; a robin, huddled in the tree (they're insect eaters, not a lot for them today); the garbage truck getting stuck momentarily going up my hill; my elderly neighbour coping, cancelling her medical appointments; a woman I don't know slogging through the snow and apparently photographing birds complete with tripod and a long lens (no, it's not me, I spied her from my window); being comfortable in a warm home after spending a languorous day doing anything and nothing - I wouldn't change it except BRING ON SPRING SOON PLEASE!!!!!!

Re: Today in pictures

Today in Pictures, no longer than 30 minutes today, but for those not fortunate enough to have any flowers emerging yet, this is all I had time for.

Number 4 has a warmth to it, worth putting in a frame.

Re: Today in pictures

Some interesting snow 'sculptures' were created by the wind and snow today. My car is actually quite rounded, but the drifts made a boxy square out of it.
